Primary treatment
Assessment of screening, settlement and physical-chemical treatment to prepare wastewater for downstream processes.
Wastewater Treatment
Practical engineering for reliable treatment.
Independent process engineering for industrial effluent and wastewater systems, from treatment assessment and design to troubleshooting and plant improvement.
Discuss your treatment requirementsUnderstand the load. Define the treatment.
We assess influent quality, flow variation and required effluent quality to establish a practical basis for treatment. Our reviews bring together operating data, plant capacity and site constraints to guide design and improvement decisions.
Treatment stages we support
Biological treatment
Process assessment and design review for organic load and nutrient removal.
Tertiary treatment & reuse
Filtration, polishing and disinfection assessed against discharge or intended reuse requirements.
Where we can help
- 01
Influent & variable loads
Review flow, wastewater composition and changes associated with production or cleaning.
- 02
Effluent quality & targets
Assess treatment performance against the site’s discharge or reuse requirements.
- 03
Biological performance
Investigate foaming, poor settlement and unstable treatment using plant data.
- 04
Capacity & plant upgrades
Identify process constraints and compare operational improvements with upgrade options.
- 05
Energy & chemical use
Review aeration, pumping and dosing to identify practical efficiency opportunities.
- 06
Residuals & operating cost
Consider sludge production and handling requirements within the overall treatment assessment.
Treatment processes
- Screening and grit removal
- Flow equalisation and pH adjustment
- Primary settlement and dissolved air flotation
- Activated sludge and extended aeration
- MBBR, SBR and membrane bioreactors
- Nutrient removal
- Tertiary filtration and polishing
- Disinfection
Process selection considers wastewater characteristics, treatment targets, available space and operating requirements.
